Strategic LeadershipSchool executives will create conditions that result in strategically re-imaging the school’s vision, mission, and goalsin the 21st century. Understanding that schools ideally prepare students for an unseen but not altogether unpredictable future, the leader creates a climate of inquiry that challenges the school community to continually re-purpose itself by building on its core values and beliefs about its preferred future and then developing a pathway to reach it.
